Cassette recruitment in the chromosomal Integron of Vibrio cholerae [PDF]

, 2021
International audienceIntegrons are genetic systems conferring to bacteria a rapid adaptation capability. The integron integrase is able to capture, stockpile and shuffle novel functions embedded in cassettes.

Impact of Wastewater Treatment on the Prevalence of Integrons and the Genetic Diversity of Integron Gene Cassettes [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2018
ABSTRACTThe integron platform allows the acquisition, expression, and dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes within gene cassettes. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) contain abundant resistance genes; however, knowledge about the impacts of wastewater treatment on integrons and their gene cassettes is limited.

Genetic Diversity of Multidrug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates Carrying blaVIM–2 and blaKPC–2 Genes That Spread on Different Genetic Environment in Colombia

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic Gram-negative pathogen with an increase in the frequency of infections caused by multidrug resistant (MDR) and extensively drug resistant (XDR) strains, limiting the available therapeutic options.

A study of clinical strains of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa and the investigation of antibiotic resistance mechanisms in the multidrug resistant strain PA13 [PDF]

, 2008
Thirteen clinical strains of bacteria from two Irish hospitals were identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa using classical methods, API 20NE and Biolog GN. Their identification was confirmed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

Integron Content in Select Study Isolates.

, 2013
Integron PCR gene products of WC 13–24 are shown. The block arrow marks the 550 base pair PCR product of the prevalent strain A. baumannii. The water control is labeled “neg.” The cartoon shows the layout of a typical Class I integron.

Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...

Importance of integrons in the diffusion of resistance [PDF]

Veterinary Research, 2001
Horizontal transfer of resistance genes is a successful mechanism for the transmission and dissemination of multiple drug resistance among bacterial pathogens. The impact of horizontally transmitted genetic determinants in the evolution of resistance is particularly evident when resistance genes are physically associated in clusters and transferred en ...
